Another wonderful desert night's sleep ending with a great morning sunrise on my walkabout. Full sun clear blue skies and next to no wind. It feels so good to be here.
 |
| even some desert blooms I saw |
 |
| love walking these trails in the desert so peaceful here |
 |
many sites are decorated and this be
the site where Santa Clause lives |
Then I made a quick trip to Olson's IGA in Ajo just for a few veggies, and home by shortly after 9am.
 |
| the finings from the copper mine here in AJO |
 |
| more finings over there as well |
Got home and deployed our awning for some shade from this intense sun. Then made a favourite for Suzie's for lunch, when I had the restaurant, most Saturday mornings she enjoyed this western or a clubhouse sandwich. Hmm I have not made that for a while either. We have not had this for quite a while. Toasted western with cheese. Easy and quick 2 eggs, chopped ham and onion then melt some cheese once it is set then fold over twice , oh yummy.

toasted western with cheese a big seller in my restaurant
and one of Suzie's favourites |
I noticed this morning our batteries got a full charge by 10 , so all is good in that department.
After lunch I took a drive down the road to a BLM places we have stayed at before Gunsight Wash. A great place to stay and is free for 14 days. Noticed no host there this year and not many people camping either. Pretty well wide open and so many wonderful boon docking spots to enjoy.
 |
| Gunsight Wash a wonderful area we enjoyed |
 |
| so many excellent sites here. like this is one |
 |
| another one here |
Back home to relax in shade and enjoy this wonderful sunny day. With Suzie, enjoying our reading. I read for a bit walk around a bit, read some more putter around, topped up our batteries, gotta keep moving . Needed up with almost 4 miles done today.
 |
| mid afternoon a moon in the sky |
A nice happy hour with Suzie then time to whip up supper. Just before the sunsets and cools off.
 |
| the sun is setting as supper is almost done |
 |
| love the sunsets on the mountains to the east as well |
Supper tonight is to pan fry a couple of catfish fillets on our cast iron pan heated on our Weber Q.
 |
| heated up a 1/2 lemon on our Weber to make it juicy for the fish |
The catfish turned out wonderful to go along with our tasty salad.
 |
| we do love our catfish |

Where have we been this Winter?
A nice relaxing day. We talked about staying at Gunsight Wash this trip but due to no cell service we avoided the area.
ReplyDeleteWesterns looked great. Keep enjoying that wonderful area.
Our new phones this year work there no problem just yours I guess.
DeleteGotta have a western when we are in the south west right? Yes we loving the area.
Oh no cell service, that may be a big problem for most folks these days. I remember how crowded it would get before the big cell and internet days.
ReplyDeleteThat Western sandwich looks sooo good.
Our cell phones work there as does our internet Deb I think has a different cell phone provider,
DeleteThe western were tasty. thanks.
Arizona certainly has a large copper mining industry. Those western omelet sandwiches look delish!
ReplyDeleteYes there is a lot of copper mining going on here we have been to a couple of copper mines quite interesting.
DeleteThanks Jeff the westerns we very good.
I enjoyed these views. Mining does leave an eyesore doesn't it. I've screenshot the recipe. In a feeling slim day I'm going to make that. Oh a book for you, Extinction point by Paul antony Jones. I can't put it down.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of huge eyesores in Arizona from depleted mines. You would enjoy the western it is filling though.
DeleteThanks Anna for the book tip , will check it out.
All those spots look nice, but I'm always afraid of getting stuck. I'd be up you-know-what creek. I love seeing your blue skies.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful spots , but solid dessert ground. We have been in there with out coach and had no problems at all. These clear blue skies are amazing.
DeleteI was thinking the same thing as Nancy. It looks sandy and without a 4-wheel drive sand always worries me.
ReplyDeleteWe eat westerns a fair bit. I call them toasted omelette sandwiches because I start out with all the ingredients for an omelette before deciding whether we're having them on toast or not. Nice in a hamburger bun too. See you guys tomorrow!
We always check the areas first sure don't want to get stuck, We made those mistakes years ago but have always found help it needed. more careful now. Lots rigs go there and have never seen anyone stuck pretty solid desert ground. The westerns are tasty, yes they are a small omelette. Make a very tasty meal.
DeleteThe toasted western looks awesome! YUM! Beautiful pictures today George! Great area!!
ReplyDeleteThey are vey tasty thanks. And this area is wonderful.
DeleteAfter reading your post I have to answer the title of it with...Nothing, it was a perfect day.
ReplyDeleteYou are right Deb. it was a perfect day.
DeleteWe spent the month of June at Coyote Howls West and enjoyed the area and the town of Ajo very much. We had planned to spend the winter there, but had to leave suddenly and return back to St. Augustine due to a health issue which has since been resolved. Loved our daily visits to the Why Not Grocery! Jim Bob in St. Augustine
ReplyDeleteIt would be quite warm here in June and the area is wonderful. Of course the Why Not store is a handy place here i the middle of nowhere.
DeleteGlad you have your health issues resolved.
Sounds like a nice relaxing day and both of your meals look very good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Larry it was a wonderful day, and the food very tasty as well.
DeleteAlways enjoy a toasted western. Earlier comments about getting stuck, is all a part of the adventures. Last year happened to both myself and BIL. Thank god for the jeeps and patio mats.
ReplyDeleteThey are a tasty treat Peter. Its been a few years since we have been stuck but with other people around always managed to get unstuck. Rv'ers are friendly people.
DeleteLots of people here having trouble with their US ATT service.
ReplyDeleteWe hav no issues with ours.
